1. We Offer a Pro-Rated Refund Policy
We believe in the value of our Services, and we want you to be confident in your subscription. While most SaaS companies do not offer any refunds, we do. If you are not satisfied with our paid Services, you may request a refund within 30 days of your initial purchase or subscription renewal. We will issue a pro-rated refund for the remaining time on your subscription, less any processing fees.
This policy applies only to annual subscriptions. Monthly subscriptions are not eligible for a refund due to their short-term nature and lower cost.
2. How the Pro-Rated Refund Works
A pro-rated refund means you will be charged only for the time you have used the service. For example, if you purchased an annual subscription and cancel after one month, you will receive a refund for the remaining 11 months, minus a small administrative fee.
The calculation is as follows:
Refund Amount = (Total Annual Fee / 12) x (Remaining Months) - Administrative Fee
The administrative fee covers payment processing costs and is typically a small percentage of the total transaction amount. We are transparent about this because we believe in a fair and honest relationship with our customers.
3. When Refunds Are NOT Available
We will not provide a refund in the following situations:
- You have a **monthly subscription**.
- You have violated our Terms of Service or Acceptable Use Policy.
- You have engaged in fraudulent or malicious activity while using our Services.
- The refund request is made after the 30-day period from the date of initial purchase or renewal.
- You have received a refund for a previous subscription.
4. How to Request a Refund
To request a refund, please contact our support team at **[E-mail]]**. In your email, please include:
- Your full name and account email address.
- The date of your purchase.
- A brief, honest explanation of why you are requesting a refund.
Our team will review your request and process the refund within 5-10 business days if it meets the eligibility criteria.
5. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Refund Policy at any time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the updated policy on our website. Your continued use of the Services after such changes constitutes your acceptance of the new policy.
